Top DJ goes broke?

Top Bulawayo wheel spinner DJ Liz (real name Sharmaine Waldman) has allegedly gone broke and resorted to selling isitshwala as a means of alternative survival.

In a video posted by socialite cum comedian Babongile Sikhonjwa (also known as Babongile Moyo) on social media, it shows DJ Liz washing hands of Sikhonjwa and another unnamed colleague at a restaurant.

Sikhonjwa laughs at Liz saying, "Life is difficult, even top DJs like Liz are now selling isitshwala."

If reports by Sikhonjwa are to go by, DJ Liz is not the first to hit hard times. Recently private media reported that Former Miss Universe Zimbabwe, Lisa Morgan was preparing food — sadza rezviyo or mhunga, rice dovi, zvinyenze, goat meat, mazondo, knuckle bones and road runner chicken — at the popular open-air joint known as Pamahuswa, situated along the Harare-Chitungwiza highway.

In an interview with Wildfire Deejay from The 1873 FM based in Sandton, South Africa he said its not surprising that people can pass through such difficulties. "I can authoritatively tell you that life has its ups and downs. I was once a cleaner at taboo bar collecting bottles and cleaning floors in South Africa when I was not getting gigs. But am happy to say, I have managed to overcome the challenges and am now a top DJ who is recognised by African diplomats who come to me for interviews. At times its not necessarily that you are done and out, it s a means of getting extra income so you are able to make mends meet."
